Synopsis

The partiar interest of these multilingual compilations of medical receipts is that they date from the fourteenth century, earlier than most published receipts, and show the three languages of medieval England in vigorous and simultaneous use. The language of the Middle English receipts reveals distinctive features which add indispensably to our knowledge of the English language in this period. There are detailed indexes, including a survey of the medical conditions covered, and the notes provide comprehensive references to ogous receipts in other published collections, so shedding light on the processes of compilation and transmission.
